1. Atomizers, sprayers and other devices
In order to understand and predict the properties of dispersed phases, it is essential to be familiar with the technological means developed to generate them. A very brief overview of these devices, together with a brief description of how they work, is given here according to a classification based on the main control parameter for each device. Other classifications are of course possible.
1.1 Atomizer qualification
This classification highlights the great diversity of atomization systems. This is due to the difficulty of obtaining, whatever the generating conditions, the properties of liquids and gases, as well as the external conditions of the dispersed phases, with the desired characteristics. In most cases, these characteristics can be summed up in three...
